 What
is Endermologie?
Endermologie was the first treatment approved by the
FDA to allow the claim of "temporary reduction
of cellulite". It is a massage machine with 2 rollers
and a gentle suction action that when rolled over the
top layer of fat makes a fold. This folding action stretches
the connective tissue and results in the reduction of
cellulite and body measurements. FDA approved claims
that involved Endermologie treatments that included
temporary reduction of cellulite, reduced body measurements,
increased circulation, relief of muscular pain, and
reduction of muscle spasms.
It was developed in the 1980's as a non-surgical method
to treat the scars of burn victims, who began to notice
improvements in their cellulite as well. From that point
forward the any benefits of Endermologie began to be
recognized.
Typical questions about Endermologie:
Q: Does Endermologie reduce cellulite?
A: Yes. Endermologie has been extensively studied and
received approval by the FDA to specifically make the
claim that it does reduce cellulite.
Q: How many Endermologie treatments are necessary?
A: Usually 14-28 initial treatments, 1 to 2 times a week,
are necessary to achieve the optimal results, with a monthly
visit thereafter for maintenance. Treatments are usually
30 minutes in duration, and the entire body will be treated.
In addition to the targeted areas, your Endermologie treatments
will help increase lymphatic flow and help promote better
circulation throughout your entire body.
Q: When will I begin to see results?
A: Approximately 6 treatments will be necessary to begin
seeing results from having Endermologie preformed on your
body. Just as we do not notice our body when our weight
loss is only 1-2 pounds, but only notice our body improvements
as that weight loss becomes accumulative. Likewise, with
cellulite reduction through Endermologie, you will dramatically
observe the reduction of your appearance of cellulite
as your number of treatments increases.
Q: Does Endermologie replace the need for liposuction?
A: While liposuction does not reduce the appearance of
cellulite, the converse is true for Endermologie. Liposuction
can actually leave loose skin which will increase the
appearance of cellulite that it does not take out. Liposuction
mainly attacks the middle layer of fat, sucking out fat
cells but leaving the top layer of skin still dimpled
and full of cellulite. In contrast, Endermologie will
directly attack the dimpled top layer of skin, breaking
up the congested lymphatic flow which promotes the appearance
of cellulite.
Q How does Endermologie differ from liposuction?
A: The main difference between Endermologie and liposuction
is that Endermologie does not involve any physically invasive
techniques whatsoever. Many individuals, due to that reason,
choose to see the level of results attained from performing
Endermologie, or some of our other treatment options for
fat reduction including Lipotron,
Spa Jet, Medilift,
and First Line Therapy LifeStyle changes,.prior to committing
themselves to the surgical alternative of liposuction.
Q: Is the Endermologie treatment painful?
A Actually, the majority of patients compare receiving
Endermologie to receiving a very deep massage and find
the treatment very relaxing. Moreover, the intensity of
the rolling action can be adjusted to achieve your personal
comfort level.
.
Q: What are the after-effects from receiving Endermologie?
A: You will likely feel an increase in energy and an overall
feeling of relaxation. Minor, temporary bruising might
occur, similar to what you would receive from a deep tissue
massage
.
Q: What steps will I have to undertake before having
Endermologie performed?
A: You should drink at least 8 cups of water prior to
the treatment and continue to hydrate your body properly
during the course of treatment. Drinking a sufficient
amount of water will help the treatment eliminate the
waste from your body and encourage the necessary stimulation
of your lymphatic system to reduce the amount of cellulite
apparent in your body.
Q: Can't I achieve these results on my own?
A: Although relatively inexpensive, home-based machines
do not at all achieve the same results as a clinically-supervised
treatment. Most hand-held machines, which run around
$100, are more expensive in the long-run since you will
likely still opt to take a more traditional route after
wasting your money on such a device. Home treatments
are not FDA approved and lack the scientific research
to prove their unfounded claims. Compare home devices
to vacuums: a small hand held device is not as effective
as a comprehensive, large commercial device.
Q: Can I stop exercising once I undergo Endermologie?
A: Any treatments received, including liposuction, will
still recommend that you maintain a healthy lifestyle,
including exercise, and low glycemic diet to promote
better results.
Q Can men benefit from Endermologie technology?
A Men and women show equally amazing results from the
treatment. For men, the trouble areas of "love
handles" and loose pectoral tissue can achieve
a positive result once treatment begins.
